Welsh Assembly Members give their support to the Kennel Club and the Microchipping Alliance

15 members from the Welsh Assembly have spoken out on the need for compulsory microchipping. This comes days after a similar move from theScottish Parliament.

Members of the Welsh Assembly supported legislation taken by Northern Ireland to introduce compulsory microchipping.

June is National Microchipping Month in the UK, a month long campaign to promote the use of microchips to reunite lost dogs with their owners and reduce the number of strays in the country.

While it may be speculation, could we be in a situation where every territory bar England will eventually adopts compulsory microchipping?
